Nutrition

Nutrition Therapy is considered a major component of Traditional Chinese Medicine. Recognizing
the powerful therapeutic value in food and the importance of establishing a healthy diet,
recommendations are often prescribed to patients to strengthen and support their overall health
and treatment plans. Although nutritional therapy is often recognized for treating ailments
related to digestive complaints and weight management, it is also used to treat a wide variety of
conditions including: fatigue, allergies, skin conditions, mental/emotional disorders, and immune
support.

Because of the diverse therapeutic value of nutrition, food therapy may be considered as a
separate treatment modality or complementary when used in conjunction with other aspects of Chinese
Medicine. ProActive Acupuncture often provides dietary recommendations to patients with conditions
that require nutrition therapy; however, individuals who are not interested in acupuncture may also
schedule private consultations to discuss their dietary concerns and health goals.
